Requirements

•Detail-obsessed and organized, happy to do the unglamorous work of getting every number right, because you know that's how you earn the bigger responsibilities.
•You don't need to have seen it all. You need to be sharp, reliable, and coachable.
•2–5 years in accounting or finance (audit firm, startup finance team, or similar).
•Solid grasp of double-entry bookkeeping and how the P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow fit together.
•No professional qualification required; part-qualified or studying is welcome.

That includes room, breakfast/lunch/dinner, wifi, 24/7 gym, and more, plus hands-on mentorship from an experienced finance team.
